SUGAR

LEWATIT® MAKES SUGAR SWEET AND WHITE

One important application in the food industry is the treatment of syrup. Industrial-scale production of crystallized sugar and liquid sugar syrup would be virtually impossible without the use of macroporous Lewatit® ion exchange resins.

The resins help to turn brown cane sugar into the popular white product we all know so well. It also makes sure that the sugar tastes like sugar. Special Lewatit® grades are used to demineralize the raw solution and remove the yellowish brown substance that gives the raw sugar its natural color.
